Performance Plastics, Ltd. has World Class expertise in plastic bearings and bushings (custom bearings).  Our experience with high temperature, low friction, and high performance plastics makes PPL a leader in the field.  We have materials ( materials available ) and designs meant to give you excellent service in harsh, corrosive atmospheres, cases requiring high loads, and even high vibratory conditions.

Achieving top performance for your bearing or bushing is not always possible using standard materials.   PPL has formulated custom blended materials ( materials available ) to create just the right set of properties for a given application.  Often times, this means adding carbon fiber or glass fiber for strength and / or PTFE, UHMW, or graphite for lubricity.

Our own line of standard custom blended materials (Polymer Blend) may be perfect for your situation.  In addition to high performance, these materials offer exceptional economy.  Check the specific properties of  PB 05, PB 15, and PB 45 to see if these polymer compounds are appropriate for your application.   For personal attention,  contact us at Performance Plastics.
